A middle-aged or elderly woman appeared to be dragged by a protester during demonstrations in Boston on Saturday, Aug. 19, and it was captured on camera.
The woman, who has yet to be identified, is seen holding an American flag.
A protester with long hair and a heavily patched jacket, who was walking with protesters—some of whom were masked—then grabs her flag and she continues to hold on before falling to the ground. It’s unclear if these demonstrators belonged to the Antifa, a far-left and self-described “anti-fascist,” militant group accused of engaging in violence and vandalism at prior events, namely during riots at UC Berkeley earlier this year.
“That’s assault,” one of the Fox reporters can be heard saying in the clip.
In a Fox clip, the woman is later seen on the ground while some people come up to her, apparently trying to offer her medical attention. A woman wearing a mask with the red-and-white medical cross can be seen heading toward her.
